Well I would not count that one as valid comparison his feeback was only 98.8 percent. Also, I feel like it would go for more if reggie jackson's full name was used in the title, but I could be mistaken. I hope I got a good deal the card means nothing to me I want to flip lol.

After fees and shipping you'll probably lose or at best break even if you flip. Regardless of his feedback, Reggie Jackson doesn't sell for big money, anyways.

i have the version #/27 and i must say, it is a beautiful card in person. i paid $45 dlvd for mine shortly after release but i would much rather have had the red one despite the higher serial #.

Cool. As someone who is always worried about something I am surprisingly not worried about this purchase I feel like it will work out for some reason idk...

And I know what you are saying about the red one's they do look really good in person I had a howard one a few months ago but I had to sell it.

As long as you aren't looking to sell it to make money, it was a good pick up.

I'd say as far as picking up a nice pc item, you did fairly well. However, as pointed out already, if your intent is to flip, your probablly going to come up fruitless. If it were me, and considering listing/paypal fees, time vested, ect.. I'd need to get $65+ to make it worth while. And I do not see that happening. But then again, you may be happy with a $5-$10 flip for your time vested, and I guess thats possible. Good luck.

Sounds like a plan, however I would list it in a week or so and let it ride. Like you said, a few collectors may find themselvs in a bidding war for it, and you may be leaving money on the table going the BIN route at $49.99. Having said that, if I were to BIN it, I'd start for $59.99. See what happens. Good luck!

49.99 would have you paying .35 in listing fees, along with 5.99 in FVF. So say someone hits the BIN, they pay you $52.98. You pay 6.34 in ebay fees. That gets you to 46.64. You then pay at least 1.50 in shipping, bringing you to 45.14. Then assuming you get paid via paypal, thats another 2.9%*52.98 + .30, or $1.83 in paypal fees. That brings it to $43.31. So you would lose $0.07 if you sell it at a 49.99 BIN.

That would be a gift if you could find some sucker to buy it for 50.

If you hold it for a little while and Guerrero or Hunter heats up then you can probably turn a profit.
Vladdi is in Texas now so that also opens up a bunch of new collectors to you as well.

Did I get a good deal I just bid in the moment(I found it with 30 seconds left) I feel like it was a steal but I am not sure I really have no clue what any of these guys autograph cards sell for...


Thanks, I was the the person you outbid :(
